Bill,
You created a good combo with your artwork and verse. I too use Cleo's artwork for many of my FS posts.
Of course, I like your alliterative flourishes.

Great use of alliteration in this--"Warm waters wash" and "palms and palmettos. This gives a lovely image. I'm kind of stuck about the word "onto." It seems awkward at the end of the line. The picture really sets the mood. Best of luck in the contest. judi

Didn't like it either, but not enough to change it.

Comment from Wendy G
Nice one. Very summery feel. Excellent use of alliteration in the second and third lines. Do you need another syllable in the middle line? Or is this a different type of Haiku? Best wishes for your entry in the contest.

The challenge notes that the syllable count is not absolute. : )

Tropical islands are in our dreams, specially in winter when we need a warm blanket around us. Your words created a warm and ambient atmospheric, much enjoyed Bill, love Dolly x

"Good work with creating a mental image. excellent use of alliteration with lines two and three. The picture complements this well. The trees look as if they are waving hello.

Lovely poem illustrated beautifully with Cleo's art. I enjoyed, not only your imagery, but also your use of alliteration. This is a haiku worth remembering. I hope it does well in the contest.
